instigator10 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 I have a buddy whose throttle is sticking when he got his Banshee really wet or went mudding. Any ideas guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jereme6655 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 welcome to the world of stock banshee carbs......unfortunately that is a normal occurance for the stock mikuni carbs that are on the banshees. you can try completely different carbs like a flat-side carb. Or you can tell your friend to stay out of the water and mud as banshee's were more built for dunes and trail riding... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry's Shee Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Don't know where you "trail" ride, but here in Michigan they are apt to be muddy any time of year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MILO Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 most trails have muddy spots here in pa too, at least where i'm at. never had any trouble with that though. but it's always a good idea to clean the carbs really good after getting it all mudded up. at least they'll be 100% clean when you head out and less likely to hang up.

guns4children Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Mine do that from time to time. I just hit the kill switch and play with the throttle for a min and its back to normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
